THE WORLD PREMIERE CONCERT FILM of F*CK7THGRADE BEGINS STREAMING on JANUARY 25Th Singer/Songwriter Jill Sobule Shares Her Rock & Roll Life Story on Screen
CONTACT: Nikki Battestilli Marketing Director [email protected] CityTheatreCompany.org FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE WORLD PREMIERE CONCERT FILM OF F*CK7THGRADE BEGINS STREAMING ON JANUARY 25th Singer/Songwriter Jill Sobule Shares Her Rock & Roll Life Story On Screen Performers: Jill Sobule, Kristen Henderson, Sarah Siplak, and Julie Wolf Pittsburgh, PA (January 10, 2021): As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to prevent a safe return to indoor performances, City Theatre is excited to announce the world premiere concert film of F*ck7thGrade. F*ck7thGrade began its journey at City Theatre three years ago when Associate Artistic Director and dramaturg Clare Drobot met singer/songwriter Jill Sobule in New York. City Theatre paired Ms. Sobule with playwright Liza Birkenmeier, who wrote the book for the show, and workshopped and presented what would become F*ck7thGrade in the theater’s 2018 Momentum Festival of New Plays. After adding OBIE Award-winning director Lisa Peterson and music director Julie Wolf to the creative team, the show was further developed at the Colorado New Play Festival in Steamboat Springs and at Actor’s Express in Atlanta, supported by the National New Play Network. The world premiere production was slated as the final show of City Theatre’s 2019/20 season when the Covid-19 pandemic stopped live performances across the country. The team at City Theatre created an outdoor, drive-in venue at Hazelwood Green and staged the concert version of the show over three nights in front of an invited audience. Videographers Mickey and Molly Miller of Human Habits captured the show live and served as editors, working closely with the directors, sound engineer Brad Peterson, and City Theatre’s artistic staff to create this theatrical, multi-camera concert film. -

A Short(Ish) Note About Music and Copyright
NorthLight Media Limited 94 Thorpe Park Road Peterborough PE3 6LJ 07768 261276 www.northlightmedia.co.uk A short(ish) note about music and copyright NorthLight Media does not normally use copyright-protected music in videos. Most music is protected by copyright, whether it’s U2’s Beautiful Day or Air on a G String by Bach. Bach won’t be too bothered by infringements of his copyright but the owners of the recording probably are. Bono takes a dim view of his songs being used without permission. Films shown at events Occasionally, we have produced a film that is to be shown to an audience at a one-off event, such as a school open evening. The showing of the film to an audience in the school hall is covered by the school’s performance licence – the one that permits the school to hold a disco on its premises. But including a copyrighted song in the film is still an infringement of copyright because the song has been copied without permission. Using a song that the school has bought, say on CD, might be a defence, but ultimately, other copies of the song now exist so copyright has been infringed by the film producer. The school playing the film that includes music it has paid for is unlikely to be prosecuted over the event. Videos used online (YouTube, Vimeo and other websites) When a video containing copyrighted music is posted on YouTube, the YouTube system usually picks it up straight away. The person or company uploading the video will be told that copyrighted content has been detected and that the video will either be blocked, restricted or have advertisements placed on it. -

U2 3D Talent: Bono, the Edge, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton. Directors
U2 3D Talent: Bono, The Edge, Larry Mullen, Adam Clayton. Directors: Mark Pellington and Catherine Owens Duration: 85 minutes Classification: G We rate it: 3 and a half stars. There’s no denying that Irish rock band U2 are probably still the biggest live musical act in the world, even after twenty-odd years of touring. Aside from maybe the great outdoor extravaganzas mounted during the 1970s and 80s by Pink Floyd, U2’s live gigs are renowned as dazzling, cutting-edge spectacles, as politically and ideologically provocative as they are musically engaging. Bono, the acknowledged master of making fame itself humanely useful, still struts his stuff as if he’s a 25-year- old, and the band that supports him is as skilled as rock bands get. To see this chart- topping foursome filmed playing before staggeringly large crowds in state-of-the-art digital 3D and surround sound is, admittedly, quite a spectacle. The peculiar thing, however, about sitting in a cinema and watching U2 3D is that throughout the experience, stunning as it is, one can’t help but reflect upon the fact that one is sitting in a darkened room watching film of a band playing live in front of crowds of a hundred thousand people. There’s something decidedly strange about sitting passively and observing (through the suitably nerdy polarising 3D glasses) this massive rock show, whose actual filmed audiences just don’t stop screaming and waving for a second. As one ruminatively chews one’s popcorn and sips one’s soft- drink, one can’t help but feel faintly left out, to say the least. -

The Clash and Mass Media Messages from the Only Band That Matters
THE CLASH AND MASS MEDIA MESSAGES FROM THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS Sean Xavier Ahern A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2012 Sean Xavier Ahern All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis analyzes the music of the British punk rock band The Clash through the use of media imagery in popular music in an effort to inform listeners of contemporary news items. I propose to look at the punk rock band The Clash not solely as a first wave English punk rock band but rather as a “news-giving” group as presented during their interview on the Tom Snyder show in 1981. I argue that the band’s use of communication metaphors and imagery in their songs and album art helped to communicate with their audience in a way that their contemporaries were unable to. Broken down into four chapters, I look at each of the major releases by the band in chronological order as they progressed from a London punk band to a globally known popular rock act. Viewing The Clash as a “news giving” punk rock band that inundated their lyrics, music videos and live performances with communication images, The Clash used their position as a popular act to inform their audience, asking them to question their surroundings and “know your rights.” iv For Pat and Zach Ahern Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the help of many, many people.
